The beauty of this fund raising program
is you don't have to go knocking on doors. You can write a
couple of emails using these guidelines and information. Make
them unique by changing a few details until it fits your
personality and relationship to your family, friends, and
coworkers.
Then send the email to one
person at a time. Remember, you can copy and paste your

Dear Grandma,
How have you been? I have been busy with my
school work and I know I’m going to get an
awesome grade!
My school has just started a new fundraiser
that is very different from any others that we
have ever done. My teacher says that it is the
healthiest one yet!
It will be easy for us to do because we
don’t have to pass out catalogues or collect
money! All we have to do is email you the link
and you can order directly online!
Grandma, I know your hands bother you
sometimes and you hate writing checks. Here is
the link so check it out!

Me
PS: Please let me know how you like
these vitamins!

Dear Grandmother,
Our school has a new fundraiser. You don’t
have to buy cookie dough or magazines. This
fundraiser is more about helping people be
healthy. Plus I get raise money for our school
PTO.
You know I love you and want you to be
healthy. I have copied this information from
our school website http://www.Countryside-PTO.org
Here is information about these
products:
• They are liquid multi-vitamins,
energy vitamins or Glucosamine / Chondroitin /
MSM for achey joints.
• They are loaded with healthy natural
ingredients.
• Our school website has all of the
ingredients and details.
• We get them at great prices, and still
make 20% for our school. The company
saves advertising costs, and passes it on to
us!
• They ship your order direct to you, and
charge actual shipping…nothing extra!
I know that you will feel healthier and be
happier from using these vitamins and helping
us too!
Love,
Me
PS: Look at what they call automatic
shipment. It saves money. Our
website explains it really well.
